Not again

Well affter spending 5 hours in ER last night (Pacemaker was implanetd yesterday) They gave me something for pain and sent me home with a muscle relaxer and told me to call me Surgeron in the morning. It did help me sleep but when I fianlly woke up I now have a fever and when I called my Surgeon they said he's not in today because he is in surgery and that I should go to the ER! Seriously? Come on! So now with a horrible headache and a fever it looks like I'm headed back to the ER :(

Then get to the ER. It's better to be safe than sorry. I see you are having a hard time with all these problems.

Hopefully they will get to the bottom of this for you....keep us posted.

Currently my fever has dropped but if/or as soon as it gets over 100 I am heading straight into the ER (I have always run in the low 97s) I am not foolish and if My fever returns I know that means I have an infection so lucky for me the hospital is less than a mile just down the road. :)

I'm so sorry you aren't feeling well. Keep in tune with yourself and trust your gut. If you feel you need to go to the ER then go. Best wishes.

I wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for pacemakers. I've had mine for 35+ years. I was fainting all of the time and had flat-lined also. I feel very blessed to live in this time of technology.
